Vaccine 23:5404-10. 2005..Thus, gene-based vaccination with NP may contribute to protective immunity against diverse influenza viruses through its ability to stimulate cellular immunity...
Prior H1N1 influenza infection and susceptibility of Cleveland Family Study participants during the H2N2 pandemic of 1957: an experiment of natureSuzanne L Epstein
Laboratory of Immunology and Developmental Biology, Division of Cellular and Gene Therapies, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, Rockville, MD 20852, USA
J Infect Dis 193:49-53. 2006..These findings suggest an impact of accumulated heterosubtypic immunity during a pandemic. Such immunity, as well as its implications for vaccination, should be further investigated...
Comparison of vaccines for induction of heterosubtypic immunity to influenza A virus: cold-adapted vaccine versus DNA prime-adenovirus boost strategiesChia Yun Lo
Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, Rockville, MD 20852 1448, USA
Vaccine 26:2062-72. 2008..Existing ca vaccines may provide some Het-I, but experimental vaccination focusing on conserved antigens was more effective in this model for protection against a divergent, highly pathogenic virus...
Matrix protein 2 vaccination and protection against influenza viruses, including subtype H5N1Stephen Mark Tompkins
Food and Drug Administration, Bethesda, Maryland, USA
Emerg Infect Dis 13:426-35. 2007..This M2 prime-boost vaccination conferred broad protection against challenge with lethal influenza A, including an H5N1 strain. Vaccination with M2, with key sequences represented, may provide broad protection against influenza A...
Vaccination focusing immunity on conserved antigens protects mice and ferrets against virulent H1N1 and H5N1 influenza A virusesGraeme E Price
Division of Cellular and Gene Therapies, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, Rockville, MD 20852, USA
Vaccine 27:6512-21. 2009..These findings demonstrate potent protection by vaccination highly focused on conserved antigens and identify immune response measures in mice that differed among vaccinations and correlated with outcome...
Genetic control of immune responses to influenza A matrix 2 protein (M2)Julia A Misplon
Food and Drug Administration, Center for Biologics and Research, HFM 730, Rockville, MD 20852, USA
Vaccine 28:5817-27. 2010..The conjugate vaccine enhanced some outcomes but not others. Co-immunizing with NP improved outcomes over either NP or M2 immunizations alone. These results have implications for vaccination of genetically diverse populations...
